This was a test ant tune, Im happy with the results for now, I only had limited time to run, and this was the maiden trip...
When I get more pony under the hood, then Ill really get to the down and dirty, and probbly get a dedicated wheel and tire combo for taking to the strip.
I know the tire spinn really killed me, but it was TEST AND TUNE..

Pluss I technicaly have the 360 in the car sold so I didnt want to hurt anything.
Do I understand this correctly? You took it to the track, after you sold the engine? - That's funny.
